Considerations

Applications received after 5:00 p.m. (CDT) on June 6, 2024, will not be considered.

If your current grant term ends on May 19 – July 13, 2024, you are eligible to reapply by the June 6 deadline. If your last application was turned down, you are eligible to reapply by the June 6 deadline if it has been at least one year since you submitted the turned down application.

Because the demand for support from our program and portal support teams increases dramatically in the days leading up to application deadlines, requests for support submitted on deadline days may not be addressed in time for you to meet the deadline. Please plan accordingly.

Log in to our portal to start or continue your application or access your grants and reports.
